These gentle reads are brimming with spirited characters and positive values, with a little extra excitement and bite, so hold on tight. Written expressly for the middle-grade striving reader, the series contains no strong language, edgy themes, or dysfunctional families. In fact, family is the main theme of these titles, and one particular family is the focus, with its uncanny knack for finding humor, hope, and colorful personalities even in unusual circumstances. Written at the lowest reading levels, the story structure is straightforward and moves the reader through the text quickly and efficiently.
